one of the first systems for classifying things was developed about 350 B.C. by the Greek philosopher Aristotle. At the time, people recognized only about 1000 different kinds of living things.

in the 1700s the Swedish scientist Carl Von Linne developed a new classification system for living things. he grouped all living things into 2 major groups: the plant kingdom and the animal kingdom.

Next, he organized the members of each kingdom based on their features.

this system became known as the Linnean system.
